We are a group of working and retired business professionals dedicated to providing FREE mentoring to small businesses in the Pasco and Hernando counties of Florida.
SCORE Pasco-Hernando is dedicated to helping our small business owners and entrepreneurs succeed. We provide free, expert mentoring, counseling clients on the many facets of running a business.
We're not academics, nor have we just taken some training courses. We've actually lived it.
